Erin's Law Presentation
Ladd will hold our annual Erin's Law Presentation on February 5th and 6th. Nationwide, one in four girls and one in six boys will be a victim of sexual abuse by age 18. Over the past several years, multiple states, including Illinois, have enacted legislation to increase awareness of child sexual abuse through school-based prevention-oriented programming. This legislation, entitled Erin’s Law, was introduced in Illinois by Erin Merryn, a brave woman who has advocated nationally for this measure.
Erin’s Law requires that public schools teach an age-appropriate abuse-prevention syllabus for pre-K to 12th-grade students. In your school, Freedom House prevention educators will teach a carefully designed lesson that provides students with the necessary tools for personal safety – in a nurturing and caring environment that allows for open discourse and disclosure of any incidents. This lesson, which fulfills the Erin’s Law requirements, may include a variety of discussions, activities, and videos on:
Ways to stay safe, including (but not limited to) internet safety, personal body safety, and "safe” and “unsafe” touches
How children can recognize their instincts with conviction
How to say no
How to tell a trusted adult
Freedom House believes that this program will benefit the participating students and equip them with the tools to help ensure their safety. For more information about Erin’s Law, please visit http://www.erinslaw.org/.
Parents were sent the information via email on January 17th. If you did not receive it and would like the opt-out form, please contact the office.
